Lichen planus is a skin condition that can resolve on its own, is linked to hepatitis C, and increases the risk of skin cancer.

Using CDK inhibitors on rats showed a reduction in chemotherapy-caused hair loss, but later experiments could not repeat these results.

Male and female skin differ due to hormones, affecting conditions like hair loss, acne, and skin cancer, and suggesting a need for gender-specific treatments.

Taxane chemotherapy can cause skin, hair, and nail side effects, which are often under-reported and can affect patient quality of life.

RNAi-based biopesticides could be safe and effective for pest control with careful development and risk assessment.

K6hf is a unique protein found only in a specific layer of hair follicles.

Stem cell therapy, particularly using certain types of cells, shows promise for treating hair loss by stimulating hair growth and development, but more extensive trials are needed to confirm these findings.

Fat-derived stem cells show promise for skin repair and reducing aging signs but need more research for consistent results.

TGF-β signaling is crucial for stem cell maintenance, differentiation, and has implications for cancer treatment.

Foxp3 is crucial for regulatory T cell function, and targeting these cells may help treat immune disorders.

No single treatment is consistently effective for alopecia areata, and more research is needed.

Macrophages help regrow hair by activating stem cells using AKT/β-catenin and TNF.

TSH is usually the only test needed to check thyroid function in primary care.

COVID-19 can cause skin issues like rashes and "COVID toes," and people with skin conditions should adjust their treatments if they get the virus.

Turing patterns are now recognized as important in developmental biology.

Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.

Alopecia areata is likely caused by a combination of genetic factors and immune system dysfunction, and may represent different diseases with various causes.

Using human fat tissue derived stem cells in micrografts can safely and effectively increase hair density in people with hair loss.

Changes to the Foxp3 protein affect how well regulatory T cells can control the immune system, which could help treat immune diseases and cancer.
